{ Homemade Halloween Candy }



BOO!

It's almost Halloween!! I couldn't be more excited. Since it will be socially acceptable to eat candy for breakfast, lunch, and dinner tomorrow - here are three of my all-time favorite Halloween candies.

Hershey's Cookies 'n' Cream for breakfast,

100 Grand for lunch,

and Dark Chocolate Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for dinner.

Below, you'll find the recipes to make these ridiculously divine treats at home, and above you'll find a step-by-step video tutorial to show you just how easy it is to make homemade candy. 
If you need me, I'll be in a sugar coma.
